mistakenly inserting even one with improper polarity will cause leakage.

3.When not use the unit for an extended period of time, or not use the batteries for

in damage to your player or personal injury such as skin burns.

4.Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon playing mode. Maximum
battery power consumption happens at maximum settings. If sound gets dis­torted or if the unit fails to switch tracks, your batteries are weak. Replace both
batteries, or use AC adaptor.
